Richard Chartres became the 132nd! Bishop of London in November 1995. He was educated at Trinity College Cambridge and ordained in 1973. He served as Chaplain to the Bishop of ! St Albans, and as the Archbishop's! Chaplain at Lambeth and Canterbury. He was consecrated Bishop of Stepney on 22 May 1992. After his move to the see of London, he was appointed Dean of HM Chapels Royal in 1996 and a Privy Counsellor. This accounts for the curious fact that the Bishop of London is the only bishop who bears the title 'Right Honourable' in addition to the usual 'Right Reverend'. He is an ex officio member of the House of Lords. He deputises for the Archbishop of Canterbury as Chairman of the Board of Governors of the Church Commissioners, and is responsible on behalf of the Archbishop for relations with ! the Orthodox Churches. He is founder and life president of ! St Ethelburgera’s Centre for Reconciliation and Peace.! ________________________________________________________! !
